CHAPTER NINE : STUDYING THE BIBLE BY THE BIBLE
What impacted me most from this chapter are the symbols of the word of God and out of the many symbols learnt I will discuss only five of them.
– Mirror (James 1:23-27) this reflects the true nature of the hearer and shows them their need for christ.
– Water (Ephesians 5:26) this represents the cleansing, washing and purifying effect of the word on the believer.
– Seed(1 Peter 1:23, James 1:8) this represents the incorruptible, living word that produces life and growth.
– Lamp ( Psalm 119:105) this spiritually guides the path and provides illumination in darkness.
– Sword ( Ephesians 6:17) the word of God is a spiritual weapon against Satan.
Nfor John Njilah and David Mapugilo1 Comment-
Great symbols there! The Bible uses very important things that are used every day and cannot do without. As such, helping us to know that we cannot do without the word of God.
